Elderton Barossa Shiraz 2001

After 8 months without a glass of wine last Saturday night I opened this bottle Elderton Barossa Shiraz 2001 .   I can tell you it was worth the wait. 

The colour was intense, I swirled the wine around the glass releasing some nice aromas of chocolate, vanilla, plum, a faint touch of liquorice and finally the taste was a good balance between oak and fruit.

I'm packing a bottle to share with friends in Brisbane on Wednesday.
